WOW CLASSIC MEGA Server and the crazy queue problem · 6:09am Sep 15th, 2022

When it comes to Blizzard, there's one thing they're known for: the horrible state of their servers once the expansion releases. Unfortunately, while this has been the case for the retail version of the game for some time, this is not the case for the Classic servers.

While the Northrend Upgrade Pack might get players to level 70 right away, those looking to get some gold and level up their profession or upgrade their gear on the battlefield will face another problem - server queues. Players playing on "Mega Servers" experience the largest queues in World of Warcraft history, waiting up to six hours.

In a way, that's great, because the game feels more alive than ever. However, many would say that such huge popularity isn't worth it if they're forced to use a remote desktop application to log in or out of the queue when they're still hours away from the end of their work shift.

Of course, to solve this problem, Blizzard offered a free transfer option to different servers that have no waiting times, but honestly, nobody wants to play an MMO on a server with almost no players because the waiting times are traded for having longer needed to assemble a party for a dungeon or raid, especially when RDF is removed. Well, Cheap WotLK Classic gold for sale from G4mmo is a good choice for you.

There are more natural disaster zombies than players!
On the other hand, players were very excited to kill some undead during the pre-patch event before WotLK's release which left the game in a terrible state. In addition to the huge queues, even on non-queue servers, the game has been pretty much unplayable for the last few days since the event started.

Those who managed to play the game without major latency issues had to wait 30-45 seconds to open a letter in their mailbox or were constantly turned into zombies by grieving players. The legendary quote "You think you have it, but you don't" might not apply to the classic servers of World of Warcraft, but oh boy, it does apply to the invasion of Cataclysm. Many would agree that it's a pretty terrifying experience, especially if you're keen on going AFK in the big city auction houses.

Fortunately, the event will start earlier than expected and the conditions will be met faster, so we can hope that it will end faster and the servers will be more stable. Of course, even if the delay goes away, Blizzard will still have to deal with server queues in one way or another, which could happen through forced server transfers.
